Amazons new request for ID to creat accounts, UTR/Passport

[JamesNorth101]

Roberto does raise a good point though.

You say you are opening 5 accounts a day. Is that every day? That is a lot of accounts. Quantity is not always better than quality.

Did oyu try make a new account after 21/02/2014?

Never heard of this 'UTR', Limited companies have a registration number, vat number for sole and Ltd companies and a EORI number for importing.

if sole trader you need to register online, self assessment, and they post a code to you

10 digit

I think you may want to work out why you need so many Amazon accounts. Yes stealth is about having back up account, but creating 5 Amazon accounts a day IMO seems OTT

Sole traders get them for completing their self assessment forms.

As a general rule you only get 1

Thanks James, however is this public information, or just HRMC?

Did you make any uk accounts after 21/02/2014?

Best to ask HMRC themselves if anyone else has access to the UTR as I am not an authority on taxes Im afraid.

[MICKY H]

AV LIMITED, why don't you start a new post on how to open 5 bank accounts a day. This would be very useful.

That is assuming amazon does require UTR like he is saying.

did you try making account after 21/02/2014, did they ask for UTR or passport?

[JamesNorth101]

No I have not created an Amazon recently.

My main selling platform is eBay.

MICKY H is referring to the UTR number itself and whether it is searchable as info such as company directors or Ltd Compies numbers would be in the UK

If you are really opening 5 new bank accounts a day in the UK you are going to run into problems pretty fast.

For the benefit of other members, give something back to the forum.

[a.v.limited]

the thread is about amazons new policies and how this can be overcome.

If you want other info start a thread on that, I previously opened one on bank accounts 5 months back

Update: I made another account today on amazon.

Used uk address.

Still they did not ask for passport at start or UTR numbers.

So now I can 100% confirm this issue is one that only a.v. limtied has faced, 99.9% of people probably wont face this. So no need to worry.

I also doubt a.v. limited intentially wanted to do some fear mognering. So we should all act in good faith. This thread can be closed now before it scares more people.

as you see, at top of my page it doesnt ask for validation like it does on a.v. limited's image

interesting, the UTR number was for a business account, can you try and change this to a business account and see what happens, thanks

i wasted 2 gift cards because of you. next time i will take whatever you say as only happening to you.

and if you claim its for everyone, i will take that with a big grain of salt.

am not doing anymore tests to confirm anything you say. sorry.

My guess would be is that you have some idiotic plan to try and sell these accounts, either here or elsewhere. This would also explain the recent posting activity.

If this is your plan, take some advice and STOP posting. Account sellers need to have some credibility and actually know what they are talking about. The little credibility you had was flushed down the toilet about 100 posts ago.

[a.v.limited]

you still didn't try a business account as requested

I agree these forums are made to have helpful information and to help each other people who just throw in nasty comments should be targeted and banned.

Be careful to not get the methods crossed.

Im sure that how they differ is usa requires your SSN number to find you. Uk does not
